Habitat dynamics of flagship species for conservation prioritization in southern Europe. [PDF]
Conserv BiolAbstract Biodiversity loss is accelerating due to human actions, and decision‐making for conservation needs to be streamlined. Ex situ biodiversity modeling and monitoring based on satellite time‐series data could be an affordable and cost‐efficient tool for improving the prioritization of conservation areas.

Climate and socioeconomic drivers of biomass burning and carbon emissions from fires in tropical dry forests: A Pantropical analysis. [PDF]
Glob Chang Biol, 2023 About 20% of the Pantropical tropical dry forest biomass is affected by fires of which small fires explain most of it. The spatial distribution of small fires is related to socioeconomic and biophysical drivers, while climatic conditions drive large and intense fires.

Rilievo terrestre dell’ambiente urbano con tecnologie a scansione: un test sulla città-industria di Dalmine [PDF]
Territorio Italia, 2014 Il patrimonio edilizio urbano è un bene che caratterizza l’identità dell’uomo che con esso ha vissuto; la conoscenza della realtà originaria, la conservazione e valorizzazione nel tempo comportano interventi di tipo documentale che possono interessare ...

Conservation Science and Practice, Volume 5, Issue 7, July 2023., 2023 Wetland permanence, the duration and frequency that surface water is present, affects biological communities and whether wetlands are protected under legislation. Using a classification model, we predicted the wetland permanence class of 365,499 wetlands in Manitoba, Canada and built an online tool to help practitioners implement a conservation program

RADARGRAMMETRIC DIGITAL SURFACE MODELS GENERATION FROM TERRASAR-X IMAGERY: CASE STUDIES, PROBLEMS AND POTENTIALITIES [PDF]
The International Archives of the Photogrammetry, Remote Sensing and Spatial Information Sciences, 2012 The interest for the radargrammetric approach to Digital Surface Models (DSMs) generation has been growing in last years thanks to the availability of very high resolution imagery acquired by new SAR (Synthetic Aperture Radar) sensors, as COSMO-SkyMed,

Journal of Geophysical Research: Earth Surface, Volume 128, Issue 3, March 2023., 2023 Abstract The Atacama Desert is one of the driest and oldest deserts on Earth, with extremely low precipitation rates (<2 mm/yr). Mostly abiotic hyperarid environmental conditions prevail, and surface processes act at extremely low rates over the long‐term.

Journal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 127, Issue 6, June 2022., 2022 Abstract Crustal deformation and seismicity in Europe are still poorly understood. Seismic activity is classically ascribed to crustal strain rates generated by edge‐driven tectonic forces. However, crustal deformation is not only due to tectonic loading, but can also be related to isostatic and mantellic processes that induce additional stress and ...

Tectonics, Volume 41, Issue 6, June 2022., 2022 Abstract At mature magma‐rich continental rifts, extension focuses along discrete axial segments where magmatism and diking are important in accommodating plate divergence. However, the role of magma in influencing the deformation at rift–rift offsets is still unclear as direct observations are rare.

Multiple anthropogenic pressures challenge the effectiveness of protected areas in western Tanzania
Conservation Science and Practice, Volume 4, Issue 6, June 2022., 2022 We investigated temporal changes in land‐use and population densities of six large mammal target species across areas with different conservation category. During six survey periods between 1991 and 2018, we analysed data from remote sensing and aerial wildlife surveys to derive spatio‐temporal patterns of cropland cover in relation to protection ...
